1990 Vauxhall Astra SRi 1.8 petrol from UK and Ireland
Summary:
An underrated, cheap, fast Vauxhall!
Faults:
Nothing serious really for a 10 year old car, only rust on the rear wheel arches, and airflow meter problems (which are common I'm told).
Other than that, little niggling faults (usual Vauxhall dash lights!) that other owners had left to be sorted!
General Comments:
For the money a pretty good car, it goes well.
115bhp engine is basically a smaller version of the GTE.
It's pretty reliable and will see off quite a few so called fast cars and it's only a 8v 1.8!
A lot of car for your money!
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
